Thought the routes would be built by some algorithm but my cities show "no beauty data yet". UI and UX is puzzling. Why build something new, ugly and confusing when there is great guidelines and native platform assets available.

Okay. I've read that you're still in the improvement stage and you're adding to your list of walkable cities? Please add Phoenix, AZ and Burlington, VT to that list. Great idea. Just need to add more cities.

App installs fine, but is non-responsive when I enter destinations in San Francisco. Doesn't seem to matter whether I use street address with or without zip or landmark name, App just sits idle and ignores inputs.

App seems to work okay until I try to find a beautiful walking route which tells me it has no info so it just selects the fastest route......get it together guys.

I thought this would, at minimum, show me business info, park and/or cultural sites etc. It gives nothing. I'm in a new city on business and it looks like Google Maps is still the best app for my city exploring purposes. Hopefully they do improvements to this where there is a bit more functionality to it.

This is a great app, very easy to use and I love the way it shows me the walkability of surrounding streets. The star rating system is a good idea and they have included real things that impact walkability. I've tried adding a few street ratings and that is also very simple. Would definitely recommend if your looking for a new house or checking out a hotel.

Needs more development in terms of interface and features. Has some processing issues, But overall it has great potential to go viral. Very useful app. All the best. Keep working. Twitter @GreenmobiliT

I'm currently on wifi on my Xperia s and have confirmed connection as all other apps work appart from this one. When I load the app it pops up with 'please wait' and does not move on from there... Uninstalled! Sort it out for more stars!
